Chelsea are desperate to secure the long-term future of star forward Eden Hazard at the club amidst the strong interest from European champions.
The Blues are ready to make the 27-year-old the highest paid player in the history of the club by offering him a new contract but the player has been dragging his feet over the idea of signing fresh terms as he awaits a bid for him from Champions League holders Real Madrid.
The former Lille forward has just 18 months left on his current Chelsea contract.
Several media sources claim that the Blues led by Maurizio Sarri are already weighing up their options as regarding a possible replacement for Hazard in the event that he leaves the club in the New Year.
The West Londoners will have to sell him at the end of this season if he decides against signing a new contract.
According to Goal a reputable media outlet say that Chelsea are eyeing a big move for Borussia Dortmund player Christian Pulisic.
The Blues could spend as much as £70m on the 20-year-old and he could be a possible replacement for the wantaway Hazard.
Premier League title rivals Liverpool are also said to be interested in Pulisic who has not played as much as he would have liked for Borussia Dortmund this season.
